A Better Picture Of What Is Going On In Glenwood

Bulent Bediz, his business partner Nellie Jones and Bulent's son David Bediz own almost every house in the 800 block of Lexington Avenue pictured below. Bulent has restored 30 historic Glenwood homes in the last 40 years and has sold and given away several of them.

This next picture is the City of Greensboro's Glenwood Neighborhood Plan passed by City Council on September 13, 2011. Note that the 800 block of Lexington Avenue is surrounded on 3 sides by properties marked as Mixed Use Residential and Parks Open Space.

(Click on photo to enlarge.)

Also of note is the fact that according to the Guilford County Property Tax Records, those same properties marked as Mixed Use Residential and Parks Open Space are owned by UNCG, the State of North Carolina and Capital Facilities Inc, a wholly owned subsidiary of the University of North Carolina at Greensboro.
